Problem
Developing and optimizing semiconductor manufacturing processes is complex and costly, often requiring numerous experiments to achieve desired yield and uniformity. Traditional methods struggle to efficiently analyze the vast amounts of data generated during process development, leading to prolonged development cycles and increased expenses.
Solution
SandBox Semiconductor offers SandBox Studio™ AI, a software platform that leverages machine learning and hybrid metrology to streamline semiconductor process development. The platform reduces the number of experiments needed by predicting optimal process parameters and identifying target process windows. SandBox Studio™ AI enhances data visualization and predictive analytics, enabling manufacturers to quickly recognize process trends and optimize feature profiles. By simulating complex 2D and 3D stack profiles, the software predicts process outcomes and maximizes process windows to ensure critical dimension (CD) uniformity and minimize defects. This approach accelerates process development, reduces costs, and enables the efficient manufacturing of next-generation memory and logic devices.
